I’m always happy to connect with like minded people, especially travellers, so when I found out about Travel Eat Slay, I wanted to meet the entrepreneur behind it.

Caroline Sande, who created the brand herself, met me for coffee in London.

I was in London on a long visit, and Caroline lives there and makes lots of spontaneous trips abroad (one of the benefits of living in one of Europe’s best travel hubs…)

We had a chat about our love of travel, about travel blogging and about her original idea of putting an iconic Gen Y travel statement on a t-shirt (and as you’ll see in the interview below, not just t-shirts).

Travel Eat Slay is gaining popularity, especially on Instagram where more and more happy millennials are joining the #TravelEatSlay squad, sharing their selfies wearing the t-shirt.

Caroline puts her heart into her brand, and I found her passion and ambition really impressive! So I decided to interview Caroline for this blog, to share her work with more travellers around the world.

Travel Eat Slay – Interview with Caroline Sande

How did you come up with the idea to start a clothing line of your own?

This idea was birthed through my previous job that allowed me to travel and stay in luxury hotels and eat good food.

I needed a fashionable souvenir to reflect the lifestyle I was living.

With travel becoming more of a trendy lifestyle for millennials I wanted to provide them something they can relate to.

How often do you go travelling?

I do not have a fixed time for when I travel. If I find a cheap flight to a destination that is part of my bucket list then I go.

I have adopted travelling in the form of day trips which allows me to have a quick 12-24 hours in one city- take the 1st flight out and be home with the last flight.

What has been your favourite travel destination so far?

Tough one. Every destination I have been to had its perks or taught me a lesson.

Some knew of my brand already while some were hearing about it for the first time, but the consensus was that they liked the merchandise and how the name reflected their lifestyle (or one they would like to live).

Such feedback fuels my efforts to have my brand known in more countries and publications.

What’s the best thing and the worst thing about running your own travel fashion brand?

Best thing is to see my passion and hard work being received in a good light and customers purchasing the merchandise and seeing the photos of their travel adventures wearing my brand.
